Kamusta Pamilya ug Amigos!!! (that's Cebuano for hello family and friends)
Well being here at the Missionary Training Center is quite interesting but still so much fun at the same time. I love my companions and my district. it is so much fun being here and learning so much about the kind of missionary i want to be and also about the gospel. The language is very tough, but i find comfort in the promise that if i first seek to obtain the word, my tongue shall be loosed. Therefore, I am trying my hardest to study the gospel, and then i will be able to speak Cebuano no problem. It is so crazy that I have only been here for 6 days... it feels like forever. But i'm so happy to be here on my mission serving the Lord with all of my heart, might, mind, and strength. So I have 2 different companions here, the first is from Brisbane, Australia and his name is Elder Seumanutafa. He is Samoan and Tongan and is the coolest guy. My other companion is from Rexburg, Idaho and his name is Elder Parkinson. He is struggling with the language but he is an example to me of patience and also of trusting in the Lord. There are so many great people here and I know that there is no other place where I should be. I love this gospel with all of my heart, and I am so excited to teach the people of the Philippines. I love you all and I know this life here on earth is though. Stay true to the faith and find solace and peace through the gospel.
Nasayud ako nga
Manluluwas ug manunubos si Jesukristo.
Elder DeSchepper
